Sierra Mikain

Sierra Mikain is the Tenei Star in Suikoden II. She also appears in Genso Suikogaiden Vol. 1. She is a mysterious young woman who is encountered by the party while traveling by her lonesome. She wields the Moon Rune, one of the 27 True Runes. She's also known as the Coven Mistress. Not much is known about Sierra before she received the Moon Rune. No one knows how she came to possess it but she received its power over 800 years ago. After being possessed by the Moon Rune, Sierra took the lives of many people due to the Moon Rune's dark desire to draw blood. In order to escape this curse, Sierra retreated deep into a forest, where she found an abandoned cottage. She spent decades living in that cottage until a young knight wandered to her cottage, mortally wounded. The knight uttered words of remorse for being unable to protect his liege as he slowly died. Sierra took pity on the young, handsome knight, Rean Penenberg, and gave him the curse of immortality. Rean left Sierra for a while to avenge the death of his liege, but came back to spend centuries together with Sierra. The time they spent together was the best time for Sierra. As described by Kahn Marley, Sierra has a difficult personality, so she mustn't be angered. Even if she was once a human herself, Sierra views humans as beings lower than vampires but once a human is able to impress her, Sierra would compliment that person and ask that person's name. When Riou defeated her in battle, she asked his name and exclaimed he is a brave kid and is quite good for a human.
